About this property
Rustic Retreat- This cabin in the woods is the perfect getaway!
This 1,400 sq ft cabin in the woods is in the perfect location for all of the things to do in Houghton Lake. Enough parking for all of your toys with a circle driveway for easy in/out to the road. Sleeps up to 7. The 1st floor bedroom has a queen size bed. The 2nd floor loft has a queen and 3 twins/trundle beds. A Roku TV, games and books for the rainy days. A great fire pit includes the wood to use. Free wi-fi. This retreat is just 500 ft to two boat launches or ice fishing. It is also 20 minutes to the Nightmare, Dream, Quest, and Forest Dunes golf courses. There are several beaches located around the lake to swim at. The home is located on an acre of land with 100’s of acres of wooded state land attached. There are some trails out the door and more 3 miles away. Great place for all seasons. Several parks and beaches.
